Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a village hidden deep in the valley Among the pine trees half forlorn And there on a sunny morning Little Jimmy Brown was born [Pre-Chorus] (Bom, bom, bom, bom) All the chapel bells were ringing In the little valley town And the song that they were singing Was for baby Jimmy Brown [Chorus] Then the little congregation Prayed for guidance from above "Lead us not into temptation, bless this hour of meditation Guide him with eternal love" [Verse 2] There's a village hidden deep in thе valley Beneath thе mountains high above And there, twenty years thereafter Jimmy was to meet his love [Pre-Chorus] (Bom, bom, bom, bom) All the chapel bells were ringing 'Twas a great day in his life 'Cause the songs that they were singing Was for Jimmy and his wife [Chorus] Then the little congregation Prayed for guidance from above "Lead us not into temptation, bless, oh Lord, this celebration May their lives be filled with love" [Verse 3] From the village hidden deep in the valley One rainy morning dark and gray A soul winged its way to Heaven Jimmy Brown had passed away [Pre-Chorus] (Bom, bom, bom, bom) Just a lonely bell was ringing In the little valley town 'Twas farewell that it was singing To our good ol' Jimmy Brown, good ol' little Jimmy Brown [Chorus] And the little congregation Prayed for guidance from above "Lead us not into temptation, may his soul find the salvation Of thy great eternal love" [Outro] Little Jimmy Brown
